Wanted: Scotland stalk / practice / skill transfer for a newbie

[r6demon]

Morning all,

I plan to be in Scotland over Christmas and the New Year (26-09th Jan, Motherwell) and wondered if there were any members available who would be interested in a skills transfer / stalk / practice stalk for a newbie to Stalking?

I’ve been shooting for 10 years, but I’ve only just bought into the stalking side of the sport.

I’m happy to pay, or swap an opportunity down south (free accommodation just outside Cambridge / Thetford etc. for instance in our AirBnB?)

I do not need medal worthy game, nor a huge bag, I really just want to meet like minded individuals get out in the field and pick up some skills / experience and maybe my first ever deer (that bits optional!) I could even leave the gun at home!

I am professional, polite and have a reasonable amount of fitness for a Forty year old

Thank you for reading!

I should also add that I am more than happy to assist on the estate (butchering etc.) as way of repayment.

I am in north Ayrshire, about 1 hour away from Motherwell.

May be available for an outing for roe doe.

I‘ll send you a message with my mobile number to discuss.

A HUGE thank you to SikaSako for taking me out on the Roe today. A huge amount of knowledge was shared and I managed my first actual stalk. I can not believe how hard it is to see Roe on Scottish moorland!

Thank you again Robert. Massively appreciated!

No problem Lee.
Well done battling through the floods to get to the ground.
That was an epic adventure in itself !
Roe in amongst forest clearfell can be extremely hard to spot, as you say.
Especially under the wet & overcast conditions we experienced yesterday.
